Are they? It's pretty obvious what he's saying here and giving respect to the Bulls b/c of MJ. Media is such a joke

Why would he even say this? Does he not know how people would react to this.

Isn't this some sort of self tampering?

Shouldn't Adam Silver be alerted?

Because he's respectful and humble. The guy doesn't **** on any player or any team in front of the media, we've seen it time and again, nothing to see here.

Egads. Of all the teams Giannis could have said, Chicago has to be the most cringeworthy for Bucks fans.
